Greetings!
I am from Trinidad and Tobago. Born and raised. Now living in Canada. You know the story. Boy goes to school in.a foreign land. Boy plans to go home after graduation but meets girl. 18 years pass and boy is now married and still in foreign land. Still go home (or to first home... admittedly Canada is home too) often.
I love Lego.
I am.not a huge builder, but I sure do love spinning stories for the minifigures. So much so that I use them in D&D.
Anyway... that's me in a nutshell. No cool MOC or accolades. Just a guy who has managed to survive immigration and been able continue playing with Lego into his 30s.

Hello,
I'm a new member here. I have been into Lego for almost 25 years. I had about 8 dark age years in there. I started back into Lego because of anxiety. Building the sets helped calm me down and let me focus on something. Most of that anxiety is gone now and I just enjoy the building. I do both building of official sets and MOC's. I do post to Instagram as bricks_bc as much as I can so people can see what I've built. I also have a small Lego City as space permits, with a new addition coming this week in the palace Cinema (trying to catch up before they retire). My favorite themes are city, super heroes (marvel), and space (this includes all of the space police, alien conquest, Galaxy Squad, and of coarse classic). I have always been an avid collector. For years I collected comic books, I even had a very unsuccessful you tube channel about it (haha). But my main focus has been Lego. I'm lucky enough that my girlfriend lets me have the 2nd bedroom just for this.
Thanks,
Bricks_bc

Hi everyone! After several years of adult building, I've decided to take the plunge and join the community as a means of bettering my builds and to talk to awesome LEGO people. Plus, I'm really looking forward to taking part in all the various challenges.
This year I'm focusing heavily on spaceships so I can be more prepared this years Shiptember. Last year drained me for months.
Anyways, here are a few of my builds that I'm proud of:
Ye Old Trawler
Cassie's Café
Ventral T-F7 Interceptor

Hallo there!
Just recently stumbled across the forum community, and decided to plant a stake here
Anyhow, my name is Connor Querin, and I am an AFOL hailing from Alberta, in good ol' Canada.
Ever since I developed motor skills, I have always had a brick in hand. I typically stray towards scale recreations of "modern" (1960+) armoured vehicles, with the goal of making them filled with as many play feautres as possible!
That's about it. Outside of Lego, other hobbies include restoration of armoured vehicles, travel, photography, and the odd PC gaming title. A green adult, I am in my last few weeks of grade school - nearly the end of the beginning.
And no, I am not entirely certain what I am doing after school - throw one in the air if you are so inclined!
Cheers!
Connor
P.S. May as well leave you with a few photographs from my Flickr account - models in question are that of the Leopard 2A6 und CVRT Scimitar.

Hi everyone! I have been a Lego enthusiast for years, but since I started school, I never had the time and money to focus on the hobby anymore. However now that I have the time, I do not have the space and need to build my bank. I am mainly Technic flagship and Ultimate Collectors oriented, and I prefer the newer sets as well. I have started a Bricklink store to sell some items I own that are either taking up too much space or I have no interest in it. These items are all new and sealed, and they include:
-Lego Technic 42056 Porsche 911 GT3 RS (I do not like supercars generally, despite being Technic) -$349.99 CAD
-Lego Technic 8480 Space Shuttle -$800 CAD
-Lego Technic 8860 Car Chassis -$850 CAD
-Lego Star Wars 7965 Millennium Falcon -$260 CAD
-and Lego Creator 10226 SOPWITH CAMEL (will be added to the store soon ~CAD$185)
Prices are a bit lower than its competition, only because I do not aim for high profits and just want the buyer to make the most out of it...and free up space in my home :) All are brand new except model 8860, box is open, and the black beams sit freely in the box (do not remember if they came in a bag or not), but all the bags and books are factory sealed and new, never opened or built. Many of the sets are old and vintage, and I will add more as I determine if I want to keep the set or not that I find. Also, I live in Canada so shipping will be determined on the weight/size of the Lego set and distance. I can do local pickups if you live around Toronto, ON.
-My business email is: 1awansua@gmail.com
-My bricklink store it: https://store.bricklink.com/legomaster1686&utm_content=globalnav#/shop?o={"showHomeItems":1}
-My eBay only has model 8480 Space Ship added to it at the moment, but I will add the rest to it soon if you prefer buying off eBay: http://www.ebay.ca/usr/usamawa0?_trksid=p2047675.l2559

Looking for a unique convention of LEGO fans held en français* ?
CinéBrique is THE original event combining a convention of LEGO fans AND a brickfilms festival!
The third edition of this already popular event in Quebec will be held on November 18-20, 2016, at Champlain College, in Saint-Lambert (South Shore of Montreal), Quebec, Canada.
Attendees who register before September 1st will get a $10 discount.
For more info:
http://cinebrique.com/en/afol-convention/
* Although the convention is held in French, most of the organizers and attendees will gladly translate anything you need to know in English.

The De Havilland DHC-2 often called Beaver is probably the most famous and beloved bush plane ever built. With its distinct look, flight characteristics and sound it's instantly recognizable. It was produced from 1947 to 1967 by De Havilland Canada. Despite being out of production for many years now a lot of planes are still in use. If you want to find out more about the real plane click here.
With the help of gabriele.zannotti I built the DHC-2 out of Lego.
Features:
True to original plane with details such as exhaust, floats, decorated cockpit, nice looking and fresh colour scheme, window prints on the fuselage, radial engine print, antennas and lights on the wings
Retractable landing gear that folds into the floats
Accessories namely first aid kit, a mail package, a letter ,a fuel canister, a safety buoy and a rope to tie up the plane
A small piece of land with a wooden dock, a fir tree and an air sock
2 minifigures, a pilot and a hermit who lives in the wilderness with his dog
So what are you waiting for? Support this project on Lego Ideas and with some luck you can soon take your plane and deliver the hermit's mail into the wilderness!
This model was built in mecabricks and rendered using blender.
Special thanks to gabriele.zannotti for making the awesome pictures! It doesn't only need a good model to make a great project but also a cool way of presenting it. Make sure to check out his flickr account for more amazing images!
Thanks for checking out our article. Make sure to support, comment and share!
This is a collaboration between gabriele.zannotti and saabfan.

The tiger is challenging himself......first a tease shot......
Not much to start with but you can see the shelves and racking start....a counter of course (my friend from CITY Motors is standing in for a COOP worker) and a lot more to come.....oh, yeah a different building style you will see over the next few days with this creation.
Now some data.....COOP is Canadian, they run everything from gas stations, supermarkets, hardware stores and of course Agrocentres....which is to do with farming.
Now any suggestions are welcome....more work with be done to this on Monday (CITY Motors will continue later in the week).....keep watching everyone !
Edit - here we have a real one from Canada....
